India’s engineering goods exports surge 24.48% to $12.31 billion in May 2026: EEPC India
Jun-16-2026

The engineering Export Promotion Council of India (EEPC India) has said that engineering goods exports from India surged by 24.48 per cent to $12.31 billion in May 2026, compared with $9.89 billion in the year-ago period. Cumulatively, engineering exports during April-May 2026-27 stood at $22.66 billion, a growth of 16.8 per cent over $19.40 billion in the corresponding period of the previous year.

EEPC India Chairman Pankaj Chadha said the sector had successfully navigated a challenging period and sustained positive growth despite the West Asia conflict and resultant trade disruptions. He stated ‘The trend clearly shows adaptability of the engineering community to the dynamic external situation’. He added that government support and trade facilitation measures had played a crucial role.

However, he cautioned that challenges still remained even as the announcement of a US-Iran peace deal.  He asserted ‘It will take time for the deal to bear fruit considering the widespread disruption in the energy market and its ripple effect down the line.’ Besides, he stressed that sustaining current momentum would need continued focus on the market as well as product diversification.
